There were once two young people named Dennis and Antonia. They were a couple, and every day they went to McDonalds. One day, Dennis brought roses and chocolate to McDonalds. When he arrived, he saw that Antonia wasn’t there. Dennis called Antonia and asked her, “Where are you? I brought flowers and chocolate for you!” Antonia responded, “My love, I couldn’t come because I have a lot of homework.” In reality, Antonia didn’t have a lot of homework. She was at the movies with another boyfriend. Dennis didn’t find out the truth because he trusted Antonia.

The next day, Dennis brought a dozen Krispy Kreme doughnuts to McDonalds. When he arrived, he saw that Antonia wasn’t there. Dennis called Antonia and asked her, “Where are you? I brought doughnuts for you!” Antonia responded, “My love, I couldn’t come because my grandma is very sick.” In reality, Antonia didn’t have a sick grandma. She was at Burger King with her other boyfriend. Dennis didn’t find out the truth because he trusted Antonia.

The next day, Dennis brought pair of fancy earrings to McDonalds. When he arrived, he saw that Antonia wasn’t there. Dennis called Antonia and asked her, “Where are you? I brought an amazing surprise for you!” Antonia responded, “My love, I couldn’t come because my I don’t have enough money to buy gas for my car.” In reality, Antonia wasn’t out of gas. She was at home with her other boyfriend.

Dennis no longer trusted Antonia. He became suspicious and called a detective. The detective looked everywhere for Antonia and finally found her at her house. When he found her, the detective found out her secret. He found out that she had another boyfriend.

The detective called Dennis and told him, “Dennis, I found out the truth about your girlfriend. She has another boyfriend!” Dennis couldn’t believe what the detective was saying. He responded, “Impossible! I demand evidence!”. The detective took a video of Antonia and the other boyfriend kissing at Antonia’s house and brought the video to Dennis. Dennis watched the video and became very angry. He couldn’t believe it. He decided to go to Antonia’s house….

That’s what I was looking for! Thank you so much! I’m a 5th year Spanish teacher and love your site. I use a lot of your ideas and really appreciate you taking the time to do this. It’s tough to find Spanish resources and you’re very helpful.

Thanks Elizabeth! Feel free to email me with any questions you have. If story asking seems like too big an undertaking, you could also use the story in print as a reading…you just wouldn’t access its full potential (which is okay, if that’s where you’re at!).
